State unveils new resource guide for veterans

Fayetteville Observer - 7/28/2018

July 28--The North Carolina Department of Military and Veterans Affairs has released its annual resource guide.

The guide provides a one-stop-shop for information on employment services, health care, VA benefits and education.

It also supplies information on help for veteran entrepreneurs, women's services and assistance for active-duty military personnel.

The secretary of the North Carolina Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, Larry D. Hall, unveiled the latest version of the guide in Raleigh last week.

Approximately 55,000 copies of the guide will be available at key sites throughout the state, officials said. And an electronic version can be found at milvets.nc.gov.

Hall said the state's more than 800,000 veterans and their families are a vital part of the community.

"It is our mission to honor and salute your sacrifices, and the sacrifices of the wives, husbands, mothers and fathers who answered the call to service," he wrote in a letter included in the guide. "Our staff is committed to providing the highest level of service, responsiveness and integrity in keeping with the principles and values of this state and nation that our military and their families deserve."
